Jeff Heuerman Ruled Out

Denver Broncos tight end Jeff Heuerman (knee) has been ruled out for Week 9 against the Browns. Heuerman hasn't been fantasy relevant all year, but his absence is notable for rookie Noah Fant after posting season highs in catches (five) and targets (nine) in Week 8 against the Colts. It remains to be seen if […]

Sterling Shepard Set To Return Monday

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard (concussion) has cleared the league's concussion protocol and is set to return to action in Week 9 against the Cowboys on Monday night. It would be the first time that rookie quarterback Daniel Jones has all of Shepard, Saquon Barkley, Golden Tate and Evan Engram on the field […]

Geronimo Allison Can't Be Trusted Against Chargers

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison will face off against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9. There should be opportunities for the 25-year-old, especially if fellow receiver Davante Adams (toe), is healthy and shadowed by elite Chargers' corner Casey Hayward. Much like Marquez Valdez-Scantling, Allison is dependent on a touchdown to return fantasy […]

Delanie Walker Ruled Out Against Panthers

Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker (ankle) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 9 against the Panthers. It'll be Walker's second straight absence, and he's no lock to return in Week 10. The aging veteran has been dropped in most shallow leagues. Jonnu Smith should continue to benefit by Walker's […]

Patriots Activate N'Keal Harry

The New England Patriots are activating rookie wide receiver N'Keal Harry (ankle) from Injured Reserve on Saturday, according to a source. The 32nd overall pick of the draft can make his NFL debut in Week 9 against the Ravens on Sunday night, but it's unclear how much playing time he'd receive if he's active. The […]

Le'Veon Bell Should Break Out Sunday

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell has been a major disappointment this season given his draft cost, but that could change in a big way Sunday vs the hapless Dolphins. Bell only got 12 touches in a Week 8 loss to Jacksonville but still is dominating snaps in the Jets backfield playing over 91 […]

Sam Darnold Begins String Of Good Matchups Sunday

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold begins a stretch of great matchups this Sunday when the Jets head to Miami to face the winless Dolphins. Darnold has struggled lately throwing seven interceptions in his last two games but now begins a stretch where five of his next six opponents are in the top-10 in fantasy […]

Demaryius Thomas Expected To Play Sunday

New York Jets wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (hamstring) is expected to play through a questionable tag in a great matchup with the Dolphins Sunday. Thomas has battled several injuries this season but has played four straight weeks and has 27 targets over those four games. Even though Thomas has been getting more targets, it's hard […]

Jamison Crowder Hoping To Get More Involved Sunday

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder will look to find the end zone for the first time this season when the Jets square off against the winless Dolphins. Crowder was a hot waiver wire add after a 14-catch performance in Week 1, but has had more than four catches in a game just once […]

Robby Anderson Finally A Good Start Sunday

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson has been a major letdown thus far in 2019 with the Jets offense struggling to throw the ball downfield, but that could change in a big way Sunday against the lowly Dolphins. Miami is a top-10 defense in points allowed to opposing wide receivers and have allowed a […]

Chris Godwin Has A Nice Matchup

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin was held in check by the Titans Defense last Sunday. Mike Evans was the main beneficiary for most of quarterback Jameis Winston's passes, as he carved up their man-to-man coverage all day. Godwin should bounce back this week due to extra coverage rolling towards Evans. He also has a […]

Corey Davis A WR3 In Week 9

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis appeared to be on the cusp of a breakout in quarterback Ryan Tannehill's first start in Week 7, but as we've seen before, that was not the case. Davis followed up his big Week 7 with a dud in Week 8 where he caught just two passes for nine […]

A.J. Brown Looking To Stay Hot Against Carolina

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown enters Week 9 with back-to-back solid fantasy performances. Brown has definitely made a case as the Titans No. 1 receiver ahead of Corey Davis, but his depressed snap rate is still holding him back from a true breakout. The Titans and Brown head to Carolina to face the Panthers […]

Derrick Henry Has Great Week 9 Matchup

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry has now either eclipsed 75 rushing yards or scored a touchdown in seven of his eight games in 2019. Despite a lack of involvement in the passing game, Henry's rushing volume has kept him as a relatively safe high-end RB2 throughout the season. Henry will get one of his […]

Ryan Tannehill A Shaky Option In Week 9

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill has been productive in his first two starts for the team, totaling 649 passing yards with five touchdowns and two interceptions. Despite solid production out of Tannehill so far, he is not a recommended streaming option in Week 9. Tannehill and the Titans are set to play at the Carolina […]

James Washington Has Little Value On Sunday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver James Washington continues to disappoint this season. For those who were hoping for a breakout campaign in 2019, Washington continues to play second fiddle to Diontae Johnson, who has received 11 additional targets to go along with 15 more receptions than the former. While the 23-year-old has a shot at busting […]

Diontae Johnson Looks To Keep It Going On Sunday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson had his best performance of the season against Miami on Monday night by compiling 84 yards and a touchdown on five receptions. With Mason Rudolph back in the lineup, Johnson, who is averaging just over five targets per game this season, could serve as an adequate fill-in for those […]

Juju Smith-Schuster Looks For Repeat Performance

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster had his best performance of the season against the Dolphins in Week 8 by finishing with five catches for 103 yards and a touchdown. With Mason Rudolph back under center, along with James Conner (shoulder) doubtful to play, the 22-year-old could see an expanded role against Indy on Sunday. […]

Mason Rudolph Set For Matchup With Colts

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph will make his second start since returning from a concussion against the Colts on Sunday. Rudolph played decent against the Dolphins on Monday night by finishing with 251 yards and two touchdowns (one interception) on 20-for-36 passing. While the Colts Defense poses more of a challenge than his Week 8 […]

Jaylen Samuels Healthy Entering Week 9

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Samuels (knee) is healthy entering Week 9 after missing his previous two outings. After practicing in full over the last three days, the 23-year-old will likely take over as the No. 1 option against the Colts while James Conner (shoulder), who is doubtful, sits. Though the Colts are allowing an […]

Greg Olsen Likely To Disappoint In Week 9

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen hasn't done much this season, with that trend expected to continue against Tennessee on Sunday. Since his two-touchdown performance against the Cardinals in Week 3, the 34-year-old has been virtually non-existent by compiling just eight receptions for 70 yards over the last three games. The Titans Defense isn't great […]

D.J. Moore Faces Easier Matchup In Week 9

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore played miserably against a tough 49ers Defense in Week 8 but will look to get back on track on Sunday against Tennessee. Despite failing to find the end zone during his last four outings, Moore continues to be heavily targeted by Kyle Allen by compiling 32 looks during that […]

Kyle Allen Hopes To Move Past Week 8 Performance

Carolina Panthers quarterback Kyle Allen had a miserable Week 8 performance against San Francisco but will attempt to turn things around against Tennessee on Sunday. After compiling seven touchdowns and no picks throughout his first four starts in place of Cam Newton (foot), the 23-year-old was manhandled by a 49ers Defense that forced him to […]

Royce Freeman Looks To Bounce Back Against Browns

Denver Broncos running back Royce Freeman had a switch in narrative last week in the Broncos loss to the Indianapolis Colts, as Freeman was not the feature back in the passing game as he usually is, but rather it was his teammate Phillip Lindsay. Freeman will look to get back on track in Week 9, […]

Mike Evans Could Find Less Room To Work

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans pulverized man-to-man coverage last week against the Titans Defense while adding another career day to his Bucs resume. In Week 9 the Bucs travel to Seattle to face their zone-coverage scheme. This will create holes underneath for Chris Godwin to maneuver and have a nice day, leaving Evans […]

Josh Oliver Not A Fantasy Option Against Texans

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie tight end Josh Oliver made his first NFL reception in Week 8, but he shouldn't be expected to play a larger role when the Jaguars play the Texans in Week 9. One issue is that Oliver -- who impressed enough in training camp to earn some preseason sleeper hype -- got a […]

Darren Fells Remains Boom/Bust Option

Houston Texans tight end Darren Fells has five touchdown receptions this season. He also had three games with 12 or fewer receiving yards. While he's trending up lately, the week-to-week uncertainty makes it tough to call him a TE1, though he certainly has upside against a Jaguars team that's tied for fourth in the league […]

Keke Coutee Is No Longer Fantasy Relevant

Houston Texans wide receiver Keke Coutee didn't play a single snap in Houston's Week 8 win over the Oakland Raiders as Deandre Carter wound up playing the slot role that Coutee usually occupies. With this in mind, there's absolutely zero reason to even think about playing Keke Coutee in Week 9 when the Texans and […]

K.J. Wright A Mediocre Flex Option

Seattle Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wright ranked 16th at the position in fantasy points over the last five weeks. He has 43 tackles (21 solo), no sacks and four passes defended. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a midrange matchup for linebackers, and Wright doesn't carry a ton of upside. You can consider him as a flex […]

Bobby Wagner A Flex Candidate

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Bobby Wagner has been quiet the last five games, slotting outside of the top 12 in fantasy points during the stretch. His matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is a midrange one, which may not push him back into LB1 status in individual defensive player leagues. He would be worth flex consideration.
